I know, I know. Not again. You’ve seen this topic before. Why don’t people use the search function? Why do we have to beat a dead horse?
Yes I can hear everyone’s teeth smacking at the mere thought of this topic, but please hear me out.
I actually have used the search function. Not just here on Linda land but also throughout google itself and my question still has not been answered.
As a preface to this I am a Virgo sun, sag rising, Aries moon, Mars Venus & Mercury in Leo…

I have been reading everything I could get my hands on pertaining to mars in Leo, and the Virgo in me won’t allow me to stop. With that being said, what I am curious about is the “HOW” of mars in Leo. Allow me to elaborate.

Mars in Aries: the go-getter. The “in your face”, “right here right now” fighter. When mars is in Aries there is direct action to conquer their opponent. This placement usually is spurred into action by direct confrontation or someone being in their way.

Mars in Capricorn: the “big picture” kind of person. This placement has a calculated plan for the overall destruction of their problem. They will destroy you, your career, everything you hold dear, and then they will run you out of town. Only then will they allow you to have a bit of solace. Once you’re in their sights, they don’t quit and it will be painful.

Mars in Scorpio: the assassin. If mars in Aries in the “in your face fighter”, then mars in Scorpio is the “wait it out and catch you while your sleeping” type of opponent. This person has a plan to win in the end and make you pay when you think everything is squashed. This person doesn’t like to be made to feel/look like they are insignificant.

Mars in Leo: here is where my confusion lies. So far everything I have read regarding mars in Leo suggests that they are the king and will fight when they feel they are not getting their due respect or if their pride is hurt. What I can’t put my finger on is the “how”….. Mars in Aries is the fighter, Mars in cap is the calculator, mars in Scorpio is the silent assassin, but where does mars in Leo fit in?
What makes it more frustrating is that when I read about the most aggressive mars sign, Aries usually comes up at the top of the list. And then without fail, mars in Leo is right behind it and the description always says something along the lines of mars in Leo will fight to the death, mars in Leo will roar mightily until you concede and pay respects. Normally mars in Leo is always listed as the only other mars that is able to keep up with mars in Aries.
Is it the animalistic fighter? Or maybe the royal knight? I can’t seem to make this make sense.

I know it may seem like a weird request but can anyone shed some light on this. I welcome any and all input/discussion on this thanks in advance.

^ Yeah they know itt lol, I like Leo's arrogance (can't even call it arrogance much,it's more like pride or self-worship/celebration) , Aries's can get annoying altho I like their confrontational attitude.

CertifiedAwesome we have a lot of similar placements, I am also a virgo, I have venus conjunct mars in Leo under 1d and sag rising like you.

BTW the way you are describing the different mars signs is soooooooooooooo mercury in Leo and that is were we are different as I have mercury in virgo, I feel you are putting mars in aries, mars in capricorn and mars in scorpio up in a huge pedestal, I mean I love all three of those placements but I feel you are adding that dramatic leo flair big time to the descriptions

As for Mars in Leo I feel is a placement of courage and yes demands respect but I have it in the 8th so that adds to that description. I like were you are heading more with the Royal Knight metaphor as I don't consider myself an animalistic fighter personally. Mars in Leo has honor, fights with honor, so Royal Knight fits better.

I have moon in leo, so ladies with Mars in Leo are a personal favorite. If you happen to be their favorite, they shower you with attention, and not in a clingy way.

Yes I have indeed been told numerous times about my arrogance and sometimes big ego during competition. But I welcome the attention because it just confirms that I am the best.

Hi hypatia238. Thank you for the warm welcome. Its nice to meet a fellow virgo sun/ rising. My mars and venus are not conjunct one another though. I don’t have any aspect between those two planets as far as I know. My mars, venus, and mercury are all 8th house though, but there is so much about my chart that I am still trying to learn.

Lol I know at times I can put a good amount of flair on things, but its because im so interested in this topic. There has been so much information on all of these placements, im just curious to see other peoples opinions on where leo fits in.
I to also lean towards leo as the royal knight when it comes to competition but there is something that I feel I am still missing. When I think of a knight, I see an imposing figure high up on a horse, ready to do battle in magnificent shiny armor (sounds just like leo right ). I guess im still curious about how leo goes about its duty. Is it aggressive like aries, brutal like cap, patient like scorpio (I know this isn’t leo at all), or could it be a combo of all three that leo displays in a good balance. Does the ferociousness of leo depend on other influences?

When I think of Mars in Leo, Matthew McConaughey‘s character from the movie ‘Magic Mike’ comes to mind.

Here he is, as Uncle Sam 🤪

He’s the one who makes the biggest entrance! Before making the first move, he’ll first make sure that his reputation proceeds! And his reputation is what counts the most!

So there he comes with fanfare and horns blaring, making a huge fuss about himself .. He’ll be the loudest in the room, the one with the biggest package (of course!) .. He’ll start a fight when he knows that everybody’s watching, if not it’s not really worth his time, and he lets other’s do the dirty work. He needs an audience to get going! In the bedroom a mirror will do the trick.
Deep down in his heart though, he is just a big ole
puss ycat. If you stroke his ego enough, everything’s fine.😸

Aries Mars on the other hand, jumps in your face at first provocation! He’ll lash out quickly, without giving a damn about who you are or who’s watching. He’s pure energy. He’ll ram his head against the wall and do stupid stuff, if he feels like it. Leo is more sophisticated and calculating. But Aries cools down just as quickly. He won’t hold a grudge. Whereas Leo .. once his ego got compromised ..he won’t let go! He’ll nag and sulk and seeth, until the natural order is restored.. making him head of the food chain, again. (so he thinks)

I love you are getting me to think about my Mars in Leo more...

I would say that for me to go after something I have to feel passion for it and that my mars leo is persistent, does not give up easily specially with romance with my mars also been in the 8th, I can have a hard time letting go and "giving up." We pursue things with confidence, we know our value and only if we feel passion for it we will go for it and persist bc if not we rather just focus our energy on having fun or chilling. We are aggressive, we are not shy; we are similar to aries in that way bc we are confident like they are; aries and leo mars are confident. Not brutal and not patient though.

WE charm, we use our charm to get what we want too and our ability to come up with creative ways to get the attention of others so we can get what we want. We use our passion and persuasive skills to get what we want, by showing our passion, been persuasive and been charming we get others to support our goal. Does that answer the "how"?

I feel I am aggressive and not shy bc I also have IC in aries and Sag rising so that may play into it too.

Venus and jupiter maybe make your mars more lazy, like I have sun square neptune and mars conjunct venus sextile pluto and trine neptune and I don't feel I have a ton of energy either.

Well Donald Trump has Mars in Leo on the AC trine and sextile his sun opposite moon so his Mars on his AC is the point of thales of his sun opposite moon.

Hillary has Mars in Leo too lol but not at an angle and conjunct Neptune and Saturn.

Safe to say we saw Mars in Leo in action in the past elections

Results: His mars is at angle aspecting via soft aspects his luminaries and her mars is afflicted.

Lol I’m dying of laughter because I know this is so true about Leo’s entrance. I’ve also seen the statement of “he needs an audience” come up many times in my searches. I’ve seen one of the main differences between Leo and arise in fighting is that Leo will take a moment to assess the situation where as arise just jumps in head first. Both tactics have their strengths and weaknesses. And oh yes let us not forget that Leo must be acknowledged as the top dog (cat) or else no one will get any rest. Would you/could you give me more of your perspective on this topic?

I’m glad I could get your wheels turning. I agree that as a mars in Leo I don’t just jump into any fight just for the sake of fighting. However if do find myself in that situation, I don’t give in and I keep pushing no matter what, but the thing that would keep me going is not losing and looking like a fool. The fight may have been petty and stupid but I NEED to be able to say that I won. I can definitely appreciate your mentioning the shared confidence aspect between Leos and arise, and I think that is a big piece of the puzzle. You do have to be able to look at an opponent/problem and be brave enough to confront it no matter what.

I gather that mars in Leo has its own way of going about confrontation and is adaptable no matter what the problem is. We have the confidence and aggressiveness to confront our threats and we can also rally our troops to support our cause if need be. Leo is not as impulsive as arise, but it still has the heart to take care of business while looking better than everyone else. (Especially if our ego tells commands us to do so.)

You mentioned that you go after things when you feel passionate about the issue. When you are provoked whether physically or verbally, do you strike first? Strike hard enough to be left alone? Go for the killing blow? I’d like others with mars in Leo to answer this as well if possible.

It depends on the scenario, are we talking at home, mars rules my IC and at home I will defend myself and not back down but venus rules my MC, 5th and 6th so at work I tend be more venus in Leo than Mars in Leo, I will command respect and assert myself if needed but be more venusian in my strategy but still have my mars in Leo presence in the 8th to support me in this. I never resort to violence in any scenario, I feel that is beneath me and it will be lowering myself. I don't know if this is mars in Leo feeling to regal to fight and resort to violence or the fact that venus conjuncts my Mars or that my DC is ruled by mercury and I believe confrontation should not escalate to violence. I really feel is beneath me to go there and will not but if you start hitting me I will defend myself, at that point I have no choice.

my older brother has mars in leo (my mercury is there... im a virgo sun aries moon like you, different other planets though) and he tends to be loud and yell but is also prone to violence especially when he was younger

we have a fight the first thing he wants to do is go take it outside and have some one on one brawl because if he cant "win" a discussion or anything really then it's a matter of him trying to show dominance in some other manner

which is animalistic in a sense...

he's the only leo mars i can think of currently

My little sis has Sun in Scorpio square her Mars in Leo. My Father has Merc,Mars,Ura, Pl in Leo. And a Libra Sun ex of mine also has Mars in Leo.

I think Mars in Leo to be quite sensitive actually. And many DO NOT have the bravado that is often spoke of in the descriptions ime. Although there is arrogance if Pluto aspects Mars(my Dad being an example of such).

I don't see them losing their cool much(again unless Uranus/Pluto is in adverse aspect to Sun/Moon or Mars). But I do see them using phrases like "you are not worth of my time" or "that's beneath me" etc. Lol

Curiously,I have Mars,Saturn,Pluto and DSC in Leo in the Draconic chart. And to be honest, I was having the most trouble "recognizing" this energy in me.

What I do see however, is dignity and pride in all Leo Mars natal folks. And a real sense of self importance.

But this is not in a conceited way. What I mean is that Mars in Leo believes that they deserve respect and to be treated decently-whether they are garbage collectors or CEO's.

You may say that this is true with us all. But to Mars in Leo,it is even more so because they attach ego(Leo) to action(Mars). Every action. So they absolutely hate to "explain" themselves to anyone. And working with others can be stressful as it requires getting all their commitments before proceeding.

So there are likely to be bumps in relating with management when it comes to performance appraisals or related work issues. An unwillingness to see that they could be wrong(esp when Pluto/Sat aspects Mars)

Their worst jobs could in fact be working under someone they deem "beneath them". As this could be hell on earth as the Mars in Leo list usually accompanies many names of those "not on par".

So even Mom and Dad must watch how they articulate themselves or approach Mars in Leo children. As this Mars(like Cancer)is very easily offended and antagonised(even more so than when Sun is in Leo)

But unlike Mars in Cancer,they do not bear a grudge and want to ground the beef. They don't whip a dead horse. Nor do they store anger.

There is often an inner perfectionist and (unless Moon in Virg/Cap or Virgo/Cap elsewhere)less willingness to do the hard work themselves I.e Delegation is their game. And an image I have of Leo Mars, is the mafia boss who hires henchmen to "bring" people to them. They do not do it themselves.

They usually first sulk or withdraw when offended(like Cancer).Then they become very icy and distant if the party does not admit they injured them.

After which, they become enraged and load off all their anger on you verbally- usually in a very loud, theatrical and forceful way. But I have seldom seen them violent.

Typically speaking,if they are violent (barring Pluto/Uranus aspects). Its likely going to be quick- as Leo finds physical violence "beneath them" and "savage". They would rather another does that for them. But not them.

They are however not averse to physical intimidation or threats of violence. But they don't extend the emotion of anger as it is very much opposed to the "ray of sunshine" that they know themselves to be.

The ones I know are even more "Leo" in their mannerism than Leos curiously. In that the benevolence,joi de vivre nature is expressed most explicitly when Mars is in Leo ime.

Donald Trump is an excellent example of Leo energy (Asc/Mars). As he thinks himself very much benevolent, just and demonstrating leadership.

Try to interrupt or oppose his views, he attacks. He will even intimidate and threaten critics. But he is generous to those who acknowledge how wonderful and great he is.

Mars in Leo has trouble differentiating whether its their heart or ego that is hurt in most situations. To them, both are really one of the same.

I'm a Leo Mars, and ontop of that Mars is sitting smack dab on my MC.

Mars is the fight planet and how you fight, so if it's in Leo you fight in accordance to how and where your Sun (Leo's ruler) is placed. I love to have fun, I also use it as a way to get what I want. Like going to a party to make connections. I am also the lead singer and guitarist in my band, which I feel is a complete Leo Mars thing to do. Leo thrives of attention, playfulness, entertaining others, and pridefulness.

I am a pretty dark person with Sun in Pisces conjunct Saturn and Scorpio Rising with Pluto in first, but my Leo Mars has made it easier for me to take it easy on myself. I also have a Sag Jupiter I feel helps with this though.

I'm a Leo Mars, and I'm loving this thread as I've been thinking about this myself, recently.

Further to what everyone else has said, the 'how' of leo mars is the drama. They may hang back and bide their time, they may try and charm their way through a challenge. But when it comes to taking action, you'll know it's been done.

Think grand gestures, dramatic confrontation, clever wordplay with a smile but a crystal clear message. I'm the royalty here, you should be treating me/my people better.

It's not arrogance per se - just a solid gold pride underneath that hurts a Leo Mars if flouted.

Granted my Leo Mars is bigger than most (said the Leo Mars haha) - it's tightly conjunct my North Node, conjunct my Jupiter (3d, out of sign) - but that's how I see it.

Oh and it's in my 7th house. Guys who finish things off with a touch of flair are very appealing to me haha!

It’s kind of similar to Mars in Aries, but more dignified. So Mars in Leo is also a “fighter”.

Leo is a social sign... and in my experience they garner support and get a lot of people on their side when they’re fighting for something, or against something.

This can happen within minutes, hours, days or months... depending on the context and situation.

Leo Mars is almost never on their own. They have a team of people around who are happy to be “right behind them”... even if they’re people they only just met.

Hey, CertifiedAwesome! Love your name, btw.

That's a really good question, and one that's often stumped me.

So far, I've seen two main types of Leo mars people --

1. The Delegators - as one would expect, these people don't get their hands dirty. They do make things happen, because they are after all, a fire mars. But they don't do it themselves. Very charming in the way they pawn things off to other people, so they don't notice.

2. The Task-masters: These are the ones serious about building something all by themselves. They take great pride in their work, but you won't see them sweat. You'll only see the end results. For them, competence is the goal - without any visible struggle. They'll be dignified through it all, and have a smooth climb to the top. No-one would even question who's the leader, they'll have proved it beyond a doubt.

I guess that's why the "how" is so elusive. Because they don't want anyone to see them work! They want everyone to see what they can achieve. The product is on display, not the process. Because that's not 'cool' and Leo's gotta do everything with style, right?

Which makes for a better show - a spectacular shot of a skyscraper somebody designed or the countless hours they spent hunched over the drawing board to make it?

The ones I know are even more "Leo" in their mannerism than Leos curiously. In that the benevolence,joi de vivre nature is expressed most explicitly when Mars is in Leo ime.

we don't want anyone to see us work! haha

Maybe is more like we like to have fun and work smart, as in get good results with the least amount of effort so we still look good.

Someone I've been crushing on for a while now has Mars in Leo. So much confidence. Personality out the wazoo. Bright, happy smile. Talks to people like he's known them for forever. Definitely not afraid of anything. I posted about him before here http://www.linda-goodman.com/ubb/Forum24/HTML/239938.html
